Analysis of Twitter Personalities

Selena Gomez

Nice Girl. Through her tweets, she expresses gratitude to her fans and she tweets about women equality and expresses support to causes. She uses pathos to trigger the emotions of her fellow women as she is an advocate for being a strong woman. She does this by publicly supporting women through her tweets. Based on her image it is safe to assume she is authentic.

Wiz Khalifa

Larger than life rapper, great dad, a strong face for the legalization of marijuana, and a humble kind guy. Through his tweets Wiz Khalifa posts videos of his performances, and pictures of his lavish lifestyle coupled with his great fashion sense. In his profile picture his son sits upon his shoulders, this lets people know that he is a father first.

Conan O’Brien

The funny guy. Most of Conan O’Brien’s tweets are jokes, he seems authentic because his focus is trying to make people laugh. He uses a lot of satire and his profile picture shows him in a costume?

Jimmy Fallon

Nice, likeable funny guy. He doesn’t seem authentic because he just seems like he is just trying to make his show more successful instead of trying to be funny. His tweets are straight forward.

Ellen DeGeneres

The nicest lady on the planet and extremely funny person. Her tweets are an extension of her TV personality. She uses Pathos to trigger the emotions of her audience that’s why she posts videos of cute animals. I believe that she is authentic, mostly because she played dory, but her tweets express the same personality as the her TV one.

Kevin Hart

The funniest man alive, family man, over the top, flamboyant. Through his tweets he encourages people to run 5k’s with him and he pushes his new movies and comedy specials aggressively and he interacts with his fans and other celebrities through twitter. He is genuine because he is just a guy trying to make people laugh and spread happiness through his work.

Barack Obama

Dad, Husband, President, Citizen. His tweets push his political agenda forward such as all presidents do, he tweets his opinions on world news. He pushes for health insurance. He uses Logos as a way to show people the logistical side to his views and opinions. He is genuine because he genuinely pushes his views on healthcare so that everyone has coverage.

Kim Kardashian West

Famous, Rich. Her tweets are pictures of her modeling, and she tweets to her family. She is genuine because she doesn’t hide anything.

Ryan Reynolds

Funny, weird, animated. His tweets don’t follow a pattern, he tweets what is on his mind. When he does tweet he is mostly being condescending and he now matches his personality to the Dead Pool character that he portrayed in the movies.

Kanye West

He is Kanye, the over the top musical genius. His tweets are Erratic, neurotic, and hypocritical. His tweets contradict themselves but they are a call for help on behalf of his mental illness.
